Thank you!

Just wanted to post a quick message to say thank you to anyone who gave me advice over the last couple of years. I'm down to just over £1600 left to pay. Two years ago I had just over £20k to pay off!!!

The snowball plan worked best for me and I feel so proud of myself for managing my money and moving towards a debt-free life.

Good luck to all of you who are starting your journey. Just remember - the light at the end of the tunnel is there, just keep moving towards it!!
